I have a question regarding changing my visa-exempt stamp to Non O based on marriage. Has anyone had experience doing this within Thailand?
I have read mixed reviews on this, but it seems like this can be done at Chaeng Wattana.
I meet the requirements on documentation, but have also read that it’s not as plain sailing as it seems and can just be down to officer desecration on the day 🤔
Hi everyone, I have a question regarding my situation
I’ve been staying in Thailand on a DTV visa while working remotely. My wife also got a DTV visa as my dependent.
Now I’ve received a full-time job offer in Bangkok, and the company will provide me a Non-B visa.
I’d like to ask
1. If I switch to a Non-B visa, can my wife continue staying in Thailand with her current DTV visa, which was applied as a dependent under mine? (Her DTV stamp doesn’t mention “dependent.”)
2. After 6 months, when she needs to do a border bounce to renew her stay, will there be any issue re-entering Thailand since my DTV will no longer exist?
3. Would it be safer to cancel her current DTV visa and apply for a Non-O dependent visa later (even though I’ll still be in my probation period under the new job)?
Thank you very much in advance for your advice and experiences!
Hi guys, hopefully just a quick question. Changing from retirement visa to marriage. Money seasoned etc got all docs. I went to Jomtien Immigration today to ask for requirements info. He also gave me form.for extension of stay to complete. I assume this is to tide me over in the interim period between retirement visa stopping and marriage visa is granted!! Am I correct. Thanks
Has anyone here in Bangkok changed from a retirement visa to a DTV visa? Im a 65 year old retired American. I’ve used the same agent every year to renew my retirement visa and he doesn’t provide DTV services. He downplays the DTV and calls it an inferior visa and would not help me nor refer me to someone else.
If you have changed visas how has it worked out for you and who did you use for the service and what classes did you end up taking? I have no problem leaving the country once a year.
Hello everyone, I hope you’re all well. I would like to ask for your advice and help regarding my visa situation.
I am currently holding a guardian visa issued by Bangkok Immigration (Chaeng Wattana) since my son is studying in Bangkok. My residence address, however, is in Samut Prakan province.
I am planning to change my visa type to a retirement visa.
* Can I process the change of visa in Samut Prakan Immigration, or do I need to go back to Chaeng Wattana?
* Do I have to wait until my current visa expires before applying for the retirement visa, or can I apply for the change at any time?
Any guidance or experience you could share would be greatly appreciated.
